Background

Not much is known about Menō's past. But it can be presumed that, as a member of the Shirogane clan, as well as one of the Shirogane Three, she grew up under Ibushi's care.

Personality

Menō appeared to have a bitter side to her in her views with humanity, preferring puppets over humans.

Appearance

Menō had blond hair tied up into a bun behind her head. As with the rest of the Shirogane Three, she wore a purple onmyoji–like outfit that has the Shirogane clan symbol at the front and covering her thighs.

Abilities

Menō was a skilled puppeteer shinobi who was also very proficient in the Transformation Technique, as seen when she assumed Sakura's form during her battle against Naruto, Gaara, and Kankurō. She was able to, not only, mimick someone's outward appearance, but also their weapons, abilities, and fighting style.

Plot Overview

She trapped Naruto, Sakura, and Lee when they visited a bandit hideout, but they managed to escape. She later tried to take the blue spirit orb in Kigan Hill. When Kankurō, Naruto and Lee tried to stop her, they found she was protected by a barrier. After breaking the barrier, she summoned a hornet drone, and escaped. She appeared again later while assuming the identity of Sakura. After her defeat, she returned back to her normal form, and summoned three insect drones. Naruto, Kankurō and Gaara defeated the drones, but one of the drones took the spirit orb and escaped. Menō attempted to kill them along with her, but they escaped and Menō dies in the explosion.
